I need to spend less time here. I had a dream last night about a Frozen overlay in Space Mountain.
I had a dream not too long ago that I was in Epcot, but only the ball was real Epcot. Everything else was foreign and confusing to me. It was urgent that I get somewhere, but I was lost. I wanted to text one of the board members for directions, but couldn't find my phone, lol.

That's all I remember. It was just a moment of the dream, really. Kind of nightmare-like.

If only my dream-self had remembered that Disney would never do a bunch of new things, I'd have been okay. ;) :)

I don't feel alone anymore. The other day I had a weird dream where you had to walk through a Cars themed hotel, behind a shady gas station and a parking garage to enter Disneyland. I end up backstage at Disney World at Epcot. I may never have been to Disneyland, but I am pretty sure you can't teleport from Disneyland to Epcot. lol

I still believe they'll put Frozen in Epcot so they can say they have something "new" at every park:

MK - New Fantasyland
Epcot - Frozen
DHS - Star Wars (eventually)
AK - Avatar

Plus there were already plans for a Fairytall Hall-like place.

This reminds me of what my mom said the other day. She goes on how she won't visit Epcot because its gotten stale and how they need a Thrill ride. She goes on how test track is fun but its not a thrill ride. It was kinda amusing to hear.

No
We don't need Cars Land, we have a pretty Cars courtyard and really expensive suites to look at...so why not do the same with Frozen?
Cars Land is great, but I'd like it to stay unique to DL. If they're going to do a land (other than Avatar), I'd rather have Star Wars Land

I was thinking of this thread when I saw Frozen again the other day. Is it odd that I am more of a purist even though I never visited Epcot Center in the earlier days? I say that because I'm basically anti-any characters in Epcot unless they are being utilized in an appropriate, edutainment way (like Timon and Pumbaa in the Circle of Life). So I sat there and thought, if they ever want to add a little touch of Frozen into Norway, it would be to use this song as the backbone of a new film and maybe even as a base for a new score for the ride.

I feel the major issue with Maelstrom is it is very discombobulated. You enter into a themed foyer which for some reason leads to a big blank '80s looking room, with only one mural on one side. In this room, you climb inside a viking boat. Then you go on a ride past trolls, vikings, polar bears, and oil rigs, and you go down a couple of drops. It isn't very cohesive. A nice composition/musical score would work well with this I think.

I wish they would add rocks all around norway that snored, and every once and a while mumbled something.

Going? If these Rumors have any shred of truth if isn't going anywhere.
Was there yesterday and waited over 4 hours to meet Anna and Elsa (it really wasn't that bad as the crowd was very much enjoyable as we tried to make it fun through the wait), but there was a lot of talk from the cast members about them being unsure what decisions are going to be made as they all claimed to have been told Anna and Elsa are leaving their current M&G after their last set on the 31st. A bunch of rumors flew around so it's hard to believe which location was their true location (if at all). The one that sounded the most logical was them moving to another temporary location in FW while a decision is made.. One thing is for sure, Norway can not handle these lines.

Guys, after going to D23, reading the forums, and reading the announcements saying "youll hear about it at D23", which was a little stand that said operation orange harvest(or something like that), which was a big disappointment compared to the avatarland imaginer cubicle with na'vi weapons(full scale, yeah huge...) SWL will probably be in DL, not WDW first, and itll be the same thing at Carsland, Lets keep it original to one park please.....

There moving CM parking away from park, gives em room

The way that people are making it sound, being one more ride, restaurant(mos eisley cantina) and area that looks like your in the movie, similar to carsland's main street..... they don't need much room, unless they make a whole park(I would be the first one there to see that) and then that'll be in WDW

Yet, why are we talking about this on this thread? we should open another about WDW carsland and DL or WDW starwars land

They should move them to a special parties hall or something, like next to the first aid center, or somewhere near future world, I know it doesn't make sense visually, but it makes lines not crazy while people are trying to get other places... such as any country...

Or just stop the M&G at the end of the month as specified.

I highly doubt they will just end the M&G only a few months after the movie, heck Merida is still going strong after almost 2 years since the movie release, and Brave did not pull anything close to what Frozen has. If Anna & Elsa are still pulling 2-4 hour waits in the off-season imagine the busy season that is coming soon. They have to either get them inside somewhere in Future World or expand a Norway to include a permanent meet and greet. That was one of the rumors floating around was the exiting gift shop being basically turned into the meet & greet as one cast member says the sales are not that great besides the princess related items.

But back to this topic, I have very little worry that Maelstorm is getting a Frozen over-lay. If anything Anna and Elsa are helping Maelstorm by driving huge lines to that ride as it hit over the hour wait a few times while I was in line.

I agree with both M&G and no overlay, just speculation
